Awkward large volume
Bulkiness is the quality of being bulky—large, heavy, or awkward to handle.
The word often implies that size creates inconvenience: The bulkiness of the package made it hard to carry.
It can describe physical objects, clothing that adds volume, or abstract qualities like unwieldy prose.
